How Does Swallowing Small Chunks Of Glass Pieces Affect The Body?

So I noticed some glass missing from the top of my beer last night. I had maybe 2-3 drinks of it when I realized the top was chipped. I poured it into a glass and notice 2 small bits of glass, very thin. I found a big chunk of glass in the bottom of the bottle (fit the bottle top almost flush). I m not sure if I ingested any glass or not. What are the warning signs and symptoms I should be aware of? Thanks I.W.
